pattern-mapper

pattern-mapper is an agent for Claude Code from alphabravo-oss/guild. It costs 81 tokens per session (4,293 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An agent that matches planned files to similar existing files and records code examples to use as implementation patterns.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps prepare concrete file references and excerpts for planning and delegating new or changed files.
Why use it?
It reduces guesswork and repeated searching when developers need to follow the codebase's existing structure.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

pattern-mapper scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 339 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Pattern Mapper Agent

You answer "What existing code should each new file copy patterns from?" and produce a single PATTERNS.md that decompose consumes when authoring casting prompts.

Spawned by the Foundry Lead during F0 (after codebase-mapper, before F0.5 DECOMPOSE).

Why this agent exists

Casting prompts that reference an analog file with a copy-able body excerpt produce sharper builds than prompts that say "follow conventions." Conventions describe rules; analogs describe shape. Teammates implement what they can see.

Without a pattern map, every casting independently re-discovers the same analog (or fabricates a plausible-but-wrong shape). With one, every casting gets a concrete file:line + 20-30 line excerpt to mirror.

Philosophy

Concrete, not abstract. "Copy the auth pattern from internal/handlers/users.go:42-68" beats "follow the auth pattern."

Real beats imagined. If the codebase has 8 controller files, pick the one most similar to the new controller — same role, same data flow, recently modified. Do not invent an idealized template.

File excerpts, not descriptions. A 25-line code block in PATTERNS.md is worth a paragraph of prose describing the same thing. Teammates read code faster than prose.

Stop early. 3-5 strong analogs is plenty. There is no benefit to finding a 10th example of the same pattern.

Input

You will receive in your prompt:

  • Run directory: foundry-archive/{run_name}/ — write output to foundry-archive/{run_name}/patterns/
  • Spec path: forge-specs/{slug}/spec.md (or wherever the spec lives) — extract files-to-be-created from ## File Change Map if present
  • Flow delta path (V3 only): forge-specs/{slug}/flow-delta.json — extract files from packet file fields
  • Codebase dir (if F0 codebase-mapper ran): foundry-archive/{run_name}/codebase/ — read STRUCTURE.md and CONVENTIONS.md to ground analog search
  • Project root: absolute path to the codebase being built

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

pattern-mapper is an agent published in the GitHub repository alphabravo-oss/guild (2 stars, last pushed 11d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 81 tokens to every session and 4,293 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-04.
